Reader’s comment: The Dutch MSM does not report this news.
Winter has not even started yet and blizzards are already battering large parts of Asia. But every wildfire in Australia is always headline news. That’s how we are being brainwashed.

Well it did indeed snow in Tokyo on the morning of the 24th November 2016.
It made headline news here in Japan.
In my area I live in the middle of Japan in the mountains and we got a solid 20cm of snow and temps down to -9oC last night.
While a dusting of snow here in the mountains and sharp frosts are usual in November, 20cm of snow and -9oC is not normal. That is usually early december onwards.
Today only got to 3 here yesterday did not go above zero, running about 6oC below average across the country.
This is just the start of what I believe will be a very snowy and cold winter for Japan.
